that's my problem- how to get that key locally. been to the MS site, even tried tricking it to think I'm somewhere else but that didn't work. was trying the anytime online upgrade. If I'd known would have gone for another edition apart from starter which I'm stuck with. You've mentioned a volume licence key- does that entail getting another windows box? was trying to avoid that
I've been using Linux for years and know how easy it is to upgrade so I find that MS windows maze totally useless.

Hi This one goes to the Microsofties. Wanted to upgrade a computer with windows 7 starter to another edition for somebody. Went online and discovered I can't get an upgrade key in Kenya and my attempts to trick the system didn't work. Now I find this strange from MS as it's so wasy to update Linux from anywhere and for free for that matter. the essence of the internet is that it's international, times have changed!
So now over to the Microsofties. How can the said upgrade be done from here? any work around?
@Gituma,
First, please note that I am not a Microsoftie like Mickey Mickey:-)
You seem to mixup issues here.
1. RTFM about Windows upgrade. I believe you need an upgrade key, but from experience, even a volume license key will do. 2. Does Linux also have 'Starter', 'Home Premium', 'Business', 'Professional', 'Ultimate' or the GUIs made you confused?
